HTML5 has experienced rapid adoption due to the rapid global growth in
mobile Internet usage. This technology is a huge step forward for
web-based and mobile device applications, enabling functionality in a
browser or mobile device that was not previously possible.

David Vincent, smartTrade Chief Technology Officer said,
“smartTrade’s engineering team has been working with HTML5 for several
years. As the code base and browser support became more mature, we
migrated all of our front-end applications, including monitoring tools
and trading workstations to a new HTML5 code base, tightly integrating
them with the full stack of the smartTrade Liquidity Management System
(LMS).

“We have migrated most of smartTrade front ends, including the
client-facing LiquidityFX
trading application. Using smartTrade’s HTML5 development platform,
clients will be able to customize their smartTrade user interfaces and
extend the LMS functionality to multiple platforms including desktops
and mobile devices from a single code base.”

Vincent continued, “The front end space is very commoditized and there
is no reason to pay high prices just to get 'a front end' which should
be a low cost component of a solid back end trading system. So
smartTrade is providing our HTML5 development platform and user
interfaces at a fraction of the price charged by other vendors in the
market.”
